The weather forecast meant that Friday would offer the only opportunity to capture the Perseid meteor shower; not he peak but the best I was going to get.

I eventually arrived a Dunstanburgh Castle and set up for the night.

I believe that this is the only capture of a meteor, lots of trails from satellites and planes but they do nott count

#ProjectTweed 11th August 2018 - I love a good castle ruin, me. This is Dunstanburgh from earlier in the week, when we popped to Craster for the day. Processed in Snapseed for colour, to HDR it a bit and to clone out the many people trailing their way in front of us.

Today has been another wood chip day. A really frustrating wood chip day. Previously we'd averaged a room day, today we did maybe 1/4 of a room. Its been gruelling and has apparently killed off a week old steamer! But, as we sit in a hotel room chilling before going out for dinner, Isobel being looked after by the in-laws, I can't feel too hard done by - as our new neighbours came home yesterday with their new-born daughter. They've got the far tougher job right now! #thepipas2018
